traveling?
In most cases when you are traveling, your
handheld automatically roams to an appropriate
network.
If you have a preferred network list, your handheld
will scan first for networks that are available in the
list.
If your handheld continues to display limited level
of wireless coverage, you can attempt to improve
the level of wireless coverage by selecting a
different network. In the handheld options, click
Network. Set the Selection Mode field to Manual.
Click the Scan for Available Networks button. In
the networks list, click a network. Click Select
Network.
Your SIM card must be provisioned for roaming
services before you can select a different network.
For more information on roaming and the
preferred networks on which your handheld can
roam, contact your service provider.
Note:
Your handheld connects to the selected network
and remains connected until you select your home
network again, or until you select another
network.
To reconnect to your home network, in the
handheld options, click Network. Set the Selection
Mode field to Automatic.

the network?
When you select a different network or load new
programs, your handheld automatically registers
